How we test support for adult

We check how well each baby sling or carrier fits the wearer, based on a range of body sizes for both men and women, how easy the adjustments are to get a good fit, weight distribution, padding and lumbar support.

Ease of use

How we test ease of use

We look at how easy the carrier’s instructions are to understand, including clarity and accuracy. We check how easy it is to get the sling or carrier on or off, when wearing both on your front and on your back.

Baby feels safe

How we test baby feels safe

How safe does the baby feel while putting them in the sling and adjusting it, and then also removing your baby from the sling.

Durability and safety

How we test durability and safety

Our experts look at how easily buckles and straps may break or come loose through constant use. We test this by using a 15kg test dummy and jolting it up and down to replicate movement by the baby and parent. They also examine the carrier to see if it has choking hazards and trailing cords that could pose a risk. Leg openings are checked to make sure they’re not so big that your baby could fall through them.
